[App] Rooting E, F (and H?) Bluray

[pguizzesamygo]

No, I didn't try FTP/Telnet.
I thought that launching the app was actually by default removing the cinavia protection.
Apparently I was wrong. I will give a try right now.

But shouldn't I have some new settings in the parameters menu ? Where can I see that my bluray is "patched" in a way.
Could I go somewhere and check something ? I do no see anything different.

Precisely by checking FTP connection (you can even only check opened ports, but anyway you'll need FTP client to install Cinavia patch), if it connects it means root succeeded, and you can install Cinavia patch

I am trying to root my BD-E5500-XA
Purchased in South Africa.
Software version: BSP-E5500WWB-1018.0

The SamyGo app appears in SmartHUB and runs but it does not extract the files.
See screen pic attached.

I have noticed that there is only 85MB free memory compared to hundred of MB from other posters' devices.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong here or is there anything else I need to do?

Yeah looks this is a problem... We already had reports from some other user with also some "exotic" bluray device with "low memory". I think we can now confirm that on these "exotic" devices rooting method doesn't work Moreover we even don't know how to distinguish "exotic models" from other models...

Hello,

I've a same probleme : only 85 Mb.

I think it's not possible for the BD E5500

So what reference Samsung player ($ 100 to $ 150) would buy it for root and delete Cinavia?
thank you

I don't know how many times do we have to repeat... From what we know it's NOT model related. For example rooting and cinaviapatch doesn't work for your BD E5500 with little memory but might work for other BD E5500 with more memory

It's at least related to models with low memory
Btw, IIRC this problem has been reported only on some E5500 for now.
Would need a special 64mb xfs image

To answer question, I think any higher range E/F model should be fine...

[scsi3]

OK this is what I meant to say: do not work on BD E5500 with little memory (mine) because the xfs image is larger than the available memory.

Is that with the BD-H5500 it works or is there also there any models with different quantit?e of memory?

Thank's

No it won't work, not because of memory but because it's H, not E/F

The XFS image is mounted AFTER rooting and it's mounted from usb and doesn't take the memory from device For you even rooting doesn't work To be honest we don't know why it doesn't work on "low memory models"
